A sneeze causes you to mementarily shut your eyes. If this process takes 0.5s and you are moving at 30km/h, how far will you travel in that time??
PLEASE SHOW STEP BY STEP because I am very confused!!
The sneezing and the closed eyes are not essential to the problem. Don't let those details confuse you.
Multiply the speed in meters/second by 0.5 seconds. That will give you the distance moved in meters. You will need to do a conversion of km/h to m/s.
Try the steps yourself. We will be glad to critique your work.
To determine how far you will travel during the momentary shut of your eyes, you need to calculate the distance traveled in the given time.
Step 1: Convert the speed from km/h to m/s.
Since the time is given in seconds, it is better to convert the speed from kilometers per hour (km/h) to meters per second (m/s).
1 km/h = 1000 m/3600 s
So, 30 km/h = (30 * 1000) m / 3600 s = (30000 / 3600) m/s ≈ 8.333 m/s
Step 2: Calculate the distance traveled.
The distance traveled can be found by multiplying the speed by the time taken. In this case, the time is given as 0.5 seconds.
Distance = Speed * Time
Distance = 8.333 m/s * 0.5 s = 4.1665 meters
Therefore, you will travel approximately 4.1665 meters during the momentary shut of your eyes.
